Freddy's Appeal.
From the Neto York Tribune

from tte NetI YORK tribune.
Little Fred did not like Sunday He never had
thought much about it except that the bells
rang and big folks went to church; that mann
ma told him Bible Stories when he somehow felt
very good and peaceful and that papa YVES home
all day, and in the afternoon, if it were clear.
took him out for walk, That is, until he lived
next door to some children and discovered that
on Sundays he could not go to their house to
play From this time Sunday was a great trial
and frequently for days before he would talk of
little else.
How many days till Sunday, auntieY" he
mournfully asked one morning as he sat by the
register, vainly trying to button his Shoes
why, three whole days, Freddy" cheerily
answered auntie.
''Only free days?'' walled Fred in tones of
deepest woe. Then theoretically, Il don't see
what you want to have it so often for!''
why, Freddy, Sunday is one of the days of
the week. 1t is Gods day"
God makes the Sunday" said Fred.
Yes said auntie.
He has kind of wheel" soberly explained
the little fellow, land turns it round till He
turns out Sunday. 1t just comes; but | don't
see why He has it so twick, aud" he added af-
ter a moments thought, IF He is going to have
it so twick all the time I'm just going into
Crowell's to play anyhow"
This idea appeared to cheer him, for he Wig
orously reattaclied the buttons and began to
hum tune. Presently he began to talk to him
self and auntie. vino was lust going out of the
room, heard him softly say:
God! God! Don't make Sunday come SO
twiclI!" Then after waiting eXpectantly a mo-
ment at the ceiling he slowly and in the deep
est bass he could command, answered: mo; !
won't, won't
Again. as shaking with laughter auntie started
toward the stairs, she heard in accents of the
most earnest entreaty:
God God! please don't make Sunday come
so twick!n
Then in stentorian tones: "No; 1 won't, 1

Hon BENJAMIN Butterworth's Lecture be
fore the Canadian Club in New York IN
THURSDAY night. on the subject Of a com
HeTcial union between the United States
and Canada, was not only a very strong
presentation Of facts in favor Of free trade
between the two countries, but was indi-
rectly strong argument against the doc
trine Of protection Mr.. Butterworth is
Republican, and claims 70 be protection
Isl, but the arguments he used in his lecture
70 support his position are hardly the kind
which find favor with prosectionists.
In the last Congress Mr. Butterworth in
troiuoed a bill providing for a commercial
union with Canada, and it is not improbable
that similar bin viii be introduced in the
present Congress. The sentiment in favor
Of removing the barriers 70 trade between
the two countries is growing. There does
not appear to be any good reason for a line
Of custom houses along the entire Canadian
frontier to prevent people, speaking the same
language, having the same religion and di-
vide1 only by an imaginary line, from trad
ing freely with each other
The American people, whenever the con-
diticns have been equal, have always been
able to maintain themselves in competition
with any other people, and it is safe to say
that if the custom houses along the Cana
dian frontier are removed American interests
viii suffer no harm. The claim is made that
without protection American fishermen
would be ruined. The fishermen Of this
country would be able TO take care of them
selves, and if they have an even chance with
the fishermen Of Canada and fail 10 com
pete successfully with them they will prob
ably admit that they have no reason 10
complain. They will not fail, however, be
cause they have the courage, energy and
skill to win success.
There is no reason in favor of freer trade
with Canada that cannot be urged in favor
Of freer trade with Mexico and the Central
and South American republics. In fact,
Mr.. Butterworth admitted in his lecture
that Mr.. Blaine was strongly in favor of
commercial union with those republics.
When such Republicans as Blaine and But
terwOrth want free trade between all the
countries of North and South America,
there is some reason for hoping that it will
not be long before the war tariff viii be
greatly reduced. If commercial union be-
tween this country and the countries above
named should be established and should
prove to be advantageous to them, modifi-
cation of our present tariff system would
quickly follow.
Mr.. Butterworth explained that he was
prOtectionist to the extent of protecting
infant industries until they become strong
enough to stand alone, but he was not in
favor of protecting such industries after they
had grown enough to wear overcoats and
number ten shoes. There are great many
industries in this country which reached the
overcoat and number ten shoes period long
ago, but they call as Justify for protection
now as they ever did. They have become
great monopolies, and they want TO be pro-
tected against legitimate competition at the
expense of the people

The Growth Of Pauperiern.

PauperisTn Is assuming very large proper
tions in the cities Of this country. at the
present rate Of it increase it VIII not be
many years before il i as great IL Ameri-
can as it is in European cities. A few days
ago it was stated in New York paper that
if all the houses in that city, in which claim
ants for charity now reside, occupied lots
twenty feet wide and were placed side by
side they would extend a distance Of eighty
five miles. The number Of such houses is
q. 800, and some Of them are crowded tene-
ments in which are many claimants for
charity.
An examination Of the condition
Of those in New York who ask
aid shows that a little more than
half Of them deserve help. 4 large percen-
tage Of them only need employment and
very many Of them are impostors.
The managers OF charitable agencies in
New York are satisfied of one thing. 1t is
that the unorganized distribution Of charity
tends to increase pauperisIn. This is also
true of other cities There are charitable
societies and charitable people in every
town, and they assist those asking help
without first satisfying themselves that the
applicants are deserving Of charity. They
are not always capable of forming a correct
opinion whether person ought to be as
sisted or not, even after they have investi-
gated his case. Only those who have expe
risnce in such matters know who are
proper subjects for charity. The amateur
charity dispensers, however, when they make
a mistake console themselves with the
reflection that their intention was good, and
that, therefore. their reward win be as
great as if their deed had accomplished
what they intended. They do not take into
consideration the fact that they are contrib
uting to the growth Of pauperisn, and that
their good intentions help to swell a burden
that in time will become greater than their
community viii be willing or able to bear.
Charity is very good thing, but to pre-
vent it from producing a great evil it must
be placed under intelligent direction. Many
who dispense aims freely, under the impress
sion that they are relieving suffering, and
doing a work for which they ought to re-
ceiye praise, are only adding to the misery
and burdens of the world.
The growth of pauperism in the larger
cities is becoming 50 marked that thinking
people see the necessity for checking it.
The only way to accomplish that is to turn
charity into organized channels, and place
the distribution Of aims under the control
Of persons of experience and Judgment.

MARRIED LIFE.
How Adam and Eve Lived Long Ago
Outside the Garden.
From the Contemporary Review.

From the Contemporary Revie,r.
In appearance Eve was exceedingly gracious
and beautiful, full of reticence and dignity;
people always spoke of her as lady, and whs-
pered to one another that she had come Of good
stock. To her husband she was full of wistful
courtesy. 1t seemed as if he had made some
sacrifice in marrying her, and her devotion was
mingled with gratitude.
In Adam there was less that was peculiar than
in his wife He would stand often on his
threshold in the evening and look out. He had
forgotten that centuries had passed by, and was
still yearning for the return of his first born
the wanderer. It was Eve, who in the spring
tide, turned to the meadow where the lambs
were playing and she always went alone
When she came back she would put her arms
around her husbands neck and Kiss him He
did not understand that she was to come from
a grave; but he was grateful for the kiss, and
drew her away to look at the young sprouting
blades of corn He had become a husbandman
and was skilled in the filling of the ground
Eve never looked happier than when he came
home hot and hungry from working in the fields.
She loved to set his meal, lay her head on his
knee, and listen to his talk of the wonderful new
ways Of raising crops and planting vineyards
He was busy and contented, and there was no
regret in his face. But their conversation did
not always turn on commonplace matters.

Their Chanee OF Heart.

From the Philadelphia Record (Den)
Senator Sherman Is going to give the subject
Of commercial union with Canada MS careful
and friendly consideration this summer. As
Mr. Blaine has put himself prominently forward
as the advocate Of commercial union with the
States of South America it seems proper
enough that Mr.. sherman should counter by be
coming the champion of reciprocity with that
part OF the continent remaining unprovided Tor.
Il is a pleasant spectacle 10 see both Of these
ambitious statesmen knocking at the outer gate
Of the Temple Of Free Trade by practically ad-
hitting that. however dangerous unrestricted
commerce may be for the rest OF the world, II
would be good thing for the two Americas.

An Anril Fool.

He held her hand, he squeezed It too,
She seemed not much 10 mind,
For he was rich, his faults were few,
And 10 those she was blind
His arm around her wiling waist
A sharp eye might detect;
She knew. Of course. it was misplaced.
But she did not object.
Close down to hers, hs bent his face.
Almost he touched her lips;
His pulsing blood in mad race
Thrilled TO his finger tips.
He paused moment, half in dread
That she might think him cool,
Then laughingly- he raised his head
And whispered april Fool
-SOnserritIe tAoSs-l Journal.
OF course it was an April Fool"
But Of fellows there's host
Who'll say with US in accents loud
He fooled himself the most.
-SeedlsaEt (l8dSs.) Chronicle.
Yes. No one but a foolish fool
Would fail to take a kiss
CWhen il was well within his reach)
From such blooming mss.
And he deserved to have the blood
Pun from his finger tips,
To get so near, yet be 50 far
From the maid luscious lips.
And meier again should this poor fool
OF kisses take taste.
Or sit beside blushing maid
With arm around her waist.
And never more should charming thrill,
His sluggish senses please,
For ne'er again should nlaiden's hand
From his 4 get squeeze.
He might as well give up the ghost"
For maidens never can
Believe they've any sort Of use
For any such man.
And never more shall feel the thrill
Qt's truly Just the cheese
Attained by giving maiden's hand
a hearty, tender squeeze.
